—Although network-wide flooding in reactive routing protocols like AODV [1] facilitates the discovery of optimal routes, they engender large control overhead. Some efficient floo...
We use a constrained optimization framework to derive fundamental scaling laws for both unstructured sensor networks (which use blind sequential search for querying) and structure...
Reachability queries on large directed graphs have attracted much attention recently. The existing work either uses spanning structures, such as chains or trees, to compress the c...
XML queries are usually expressed by means of XPath expressions identifying portions of the selected documents. An XPath expression defines a way of navigating an XML tree and ret...
With the growing importance of semi-structure data in information exchange, much research has been done to provide an effective mechanism to match a twig query in an XML database....
